Is anyone running 285/50/20's on their av?? I've heard mixed report's on tire ...right for av...
 
the 285/50/20 is 4/10's of an inch smaller in height than the stock height for the av.

The eagle ls 275/55/20 that is factory OEM on the new silverado SS is the exact height in an inexpensive 20" other than that a 295/50/20 which is only made by falken is the exact proper size.
the 285/50/20 will throw your speedo almost 1 mph... so at 60 youll be doin 59.

Which Enkei's do you have? I like the ZXC and the RT6 SUV with the Nitto Terra Grappler's (285/60/1:cool: on them. This will happen in a few months. It's unfortunate but I am going to have to wait on this one for a little while.

Yes I have seen your truck in the magazine before if your the same truck I'm thinking of....angled head shot..if I'm not mistaken....looked good... :B:

Eventually I'm going with the Falkens myself...295/50/20's ...I have about a list a mile long with wheels from Akuza, to Centerline, to boyd's...that I likes a lot...going for a 6 spoke wheel....just ask Mrs. NJAV....she looks at the list constantly hanging on the fridge.... ;D :B:

 
Here is a pic of an Av onEpic's 20' Blix.
OK, no matter what I do the attachment it is too large, so if you want to see the Av with Epic 20' Blix's click on sig below

I'll figure it out someday

They are Yoko's 295/45/20. However, if I had it to do over I would do 295/50/20 (I have spent the last two days finding a local source for when I wear the Yoko's out. The sooner I get the SC, the sooner that will happen ;)
